      How come you didn’t include “Does not exist” on the list? Ain’t no writers I know look like that except in 40’s movies about fast-talking newspaper dames.

      You have missed that era. Maybe you can be a street-smart lady cop like in the 70s. It will require “Farrah Hair” and polyester. I hope that’s OK with you.

      Also: please tell your readers more about your camera. I have decided to try to get a new camera for Christmas, and I would like to copy you.

      I don’t have a cool beauty mark like she does. I bet she applied it each morning with her eyeliner pencil.

    I’m A Master Gardener!

    After five-months of practicums, weekly classes, and a grueling 100-question exam, I graduated from the Sonoma County Master Gardener program! Here I am with my … certificate? Degree? Anyway, I’m a Master Gardener now.
